Re: Mr Alto needs an overhaul

That reminds me i bought an Bundy alto sax off Ebay described as "excellent condition, barely played". Turns out it had 2 springs missings, on one of the missing spring keys, a pad was SCOTCH TAPED in. most pads were crusty and some were brand new. Turns out a few days later i find a leaking pad. After my complaints i finally get my reimbursment.

BUT! Looking around on Ebay i find a Buffet B-12 for $60 with a vague description, blurry pictures and no response on if it had cracks or needed pads. Turns out it looked brand new, played brand new. Only the "Buffet" sign on the pieces was faded. Pads looked new and had to have been recorked because the cork was in great condition in two colors. For only $80 with shipping included.

Turns out you never can tell what you will get on Ebay.
